[h323plus] Upcoming new h323plus 1.26 Release

[Simon Horne]

Guys 

 

It's been a while since the last release so it is time to think about a new
release.

 

There has been a lot of activity over the last couple of months in the CVS.

The build system has been updated and should now build against any version
of PTLIB including the current HEAD. However it is recommended that you
stick to either 2.10 or the latest public 2.12 release version. 

 

A lot of work has been done in signaling and media encryption including
adding TLS support and incorporating the updated H.235 spec to support
AES256 with large key lengths (up to 8096 bits), H.460.22 support to
negotiate when to use TLS and media encryption of the data channel.

 

H.460.26 support has been added and when used in conjunction with H.460.17
allows tunneling of RAS, Signalling and media over a single persistent TCP
connection. If using TLS, the h323plus stack will now allow traversal of any
secure NAT over a single TLS connection on trusted port such as 443.   The
matching Gatekeeper support is in GnuGk v3.5.
